In my eyes its got to be Oh wot a scorcher for the simple reason being TLB... They was good... And if i remember.. Forgive me if i'm wrong... But was they the first to do a demo of a sample tune, for life of me i can't remember what it was(help)... And also it was my first Demo that i ever bought...

If memory serves, I used to visit TLB in Kingston, Surrey and we'd look and listen to all these sample demos well before they started making their own.

Ones by TNT Crew were some of the first that I remember - and some by another lot of German guys which just had plain text in medium rez and were just demos of their sampler cartridge / playback routines.

I develop a free Word (for Windows) add-in that's available for Word 2007 upwards. It's a fix-it toolbox that will allow power Word users to fix document errors. You can find it at: http://www.mikestoolbox.co.uk

has to be the cuddly demo, no other demo had such an impact on people outside of the coding or demo circles. The union demo came close, but mention the carebears cuddly demo to coders on other machines and they will know what you are talking about.

DSOTS was brillaint, Fullscreens all over the place, lots of Mod music/Samples. Nice reset demo and a good dose of sense of humour in the 1MB+ version of the menu music, and it worked on STE.

I think Robomix(Count zero), The Starwars Demo(Fungus The Bogeyman from Gremlin), Sowatt & Acid Burn by AN Cool were the first demos I saw after a friend brought them over one day. I then collected a few as they were more entertaining than most of the games coming out at that time with a few exceptions.

I also loved,Fish 'n' Chips,Ripped off(PETE),Punish your machine, Ooh crikey what a scorcher, The Stupendous demo(I was even sad enough to do a map on graph paer for this) And the Omega Grotesque Demo (?).

Best module compilation/player was 'Songs of the unexpected' & best Slideshow I seen was the Tobias Richter Photochrome one due to extra colours & border removal...
